Humanities with Religious Studies (Open) A dissertation submitted to The Open University for the degree of MA in History January 2019 WORD COUNT: 15,533 Hilary Anne Davis Dissertation ABSTRACT This study focusses on the Mormon mission to Britain in the nineteenth century, specifically the time spent in Herefordshire and on the borders of Worcestershire and Gloucestershire in 1840 to 1841. This mission was remarkable because of the speed with which an estimated 1800 rural folk were ready to be baptised into a new form of Christianity and because of the subsequent emigration of many of them to America. This investigation examines the religious, social and economic context in which conversion and emigration were particularly attractive to people in this area.

N attempt has been made in the following pages to considerably enlarge and improve the " Short Account of Bosbiny," which appeared in 1881. Having since that time continued my researches, and met with further particulars respecting the Parish, I have thought them not unworthy of record : in themselves, they may not be of importance, but as illustrating the manners and customs of past times, they have their value and interest, and (as the " Short Account" is out of print,) are now published in this volume. The labours of the County historian not having as yet extended to this part of Herefordshire, such information as I have been able to obtain respecting Bosbury, may perhaps serve in some measure to lighten his work, as well as interest the inhabitants. There are probably few parishes that have not some sort of history scattered throughout the rural districts of this country there are many valuable remains of former days, and events have happened, not per- haps important, still, such as may well be kept from passing wholly into oblivion.

They can be disappointing if one is more interested in the humbler buildings of the county, which may merit a sentence of two if their age was recognised at the time. The printed work is, however, the tip of the iceberg of the field surveyors’ reports. These are available for consultation at the National Monument Record’s archives at Swindon, and a number were photographed by David Lovelace as part of his own research projects.
